Shapes at the Store (Identify and Describe Shapes)

Shapes account for most of our first encounters with math. Geometry skills are learned from an early age, and readers build upon those first geometry lessons with topics like describing objects using the names of shapes, identifying both two-dimensional and three-dimensional shapes, and composing shapes. Readers are able to explore these essential concepts independently through simple text and colorful images of both new and familiar shapes. A day at the store allows readers to see the various shapes that can be found in an everyday setting. Adhering to the Common Core State Standards for Mathematics, this book highlights standard K.G.A.1. This book should be paired with "Shapes at School" (9781477715871) from the Rosen Math Readers Program to provide the alternative point of view on the same topic.
